Graphene nanoplatelets (GNP), one of the graphene derivatives is famous as the most proper candidate for industrial applications. However, current performance of GNPs as reinforcing filler in composites is limited by their agglomeration and physicochemical heterogeneity. Herein, an approach to produce non-covalently functionalized GNPs (F-GNPs) is reported which possesses potential to be extended as the industrial level of mass production. The one-step functionalization process uses melamine, a low-cost chemical, to prevent agglomeration and dispersion in polar solvents. Furthermore, a purification strategy called salting-out process based on differences in the dispersibility of the individual F-GNP flakes is reported to separate F-GNPs. The functionalization and separation process developed in this paper provides a strategy to use GNPs at the industrial level in composite applications.

In this study, a selective layer of poly styrene sulfonic acid (PSSA) and polyethyleneimine (PEI) was formed by layer-by-layer method onto a porous polyacrylonitrile (PAN) hollow fiber membrane as the suppoter membrane. The salting out method was used by adding Mg salt to the coating solution. Several experimental conditions of the ionic strength, polymer concentration, and coating time were investigated, and the flux and rejection were measured at the operating pressure of 2 atm for 100 mg/L of NaCl, $MgCl_2$, and $CaSO_4$ as the feed solution. The membranes coated with PSSA 20,000 ppm, coating time 3 minutes, ionic strength 1.0, PEI 30,000 ppm, coating time 1 minute, and ionic strength 0.1 were observed the best. In the 100 ppm NaCl, $MgCl_2$, and $CaSO_4$ feed solutions, the flux of 20.4, 19.4, and 18.7 LMH, and the rejection of 67, 90, and 66.6%, respectively.

This study was conducted to supplement limit of previous study, The objectives of this study were to select optimal conditions of high performance liquid chromatography(HPLC) operation for detecting urinary 2-thiothiazolicline-4-carboxylic acid(TTCA) and thiocarbamide simultaneously, and to evaluate recovery rates for various liquid-liquid extration method of these metabolites, The results are as follows : 1. The urinary TTCA and thiocarbamide were separate sharply when flow rate is $0.7m{\ell}/min$, using a series $C_8$ and $C_{18}$ column, 50 mM $KH_2PO_4$ : acetonitrile (93.5 : 6.5) and pH 3.5 as a mobile phase. The retention time was TTCA, $12.07{\pm}0.11$(mean${\pm}$SD, n=06), thiocarbamide, $7.85{\pm}0.01$ (mean${\pm}$SD, n=6), respectively. The calibration curve for TTCA and thiocarbamide was linear within the range 0.05 to $30{\mu}g/m{\ell}$. 2. By the liquid-liquid extration, butanol extration with $(NH_4)_2$ as a salting-out reagent was used as a simultaneous extration method for these metabolites in acid state, and recovery rates of this method are urinary TTCA, $49.6{\pm}17.7$ (mean${\pm}$SD, n=16), thiocarbamide, $43,9{\pm}5.50$ (mean${\pm}$SD, n=16), respectively 3. The precision(pooled coefficients of variation for 4 concentration) of the urinary thiocarbamide analysis was 0.03754 by butanol liquid-liquid extraction with $(NH_4)_2$ as a salting-out reagent, and TTCA was 0.04082 by ethyl acetate liquid-liquid extration with $(NH_4)_2$ as a salting out reagent The above results show that the butanol liquid-liquid extraction with $(NH_4)_2$ as a salting-out reagent in acid state, and using a series $C_8$ and $C_{18}$ column, 50 mM $KH_2PO_4$ : acetonitrile (93.5 : 6.5) and pH 3.5 as a mobile phase are suitable for the analysis of urinary TTCA and thiocarbamide simultaneously. The detection limit of TTCA and thiocarbamide was about $0.17{\mu}g/m{\ell}$, $0.07{\mu}g/m{\ell}$.

This study was carried out to observe the property changes of radishes salted with different salt (deep sea water and sun-dried salt). Shrinkage rate, salinity and texture were measured. The shrinkage rate values of radishes salted with deep seawater salt solution were higher than those salted with sun-dried salt in 8 hr after salting. The salinity of radishes salted with deep seawater salt solution was also higher than those salted with sun-dried salt. The jelly strength decreased during salting period and 5％ salting radish were lower than 3％ ones. The softness and hardness of radishes salted with deep seawater salt were higher than those salted with sun-dired salt as well.

A method was disclosed for making phase stabilized ammonium nitrate(PSAN), where the process involves precipitation of ammonium nitrate(AN) with potassium dinitramide(KDN) from the aqueous solutions of their salts using a salting out technique. The organic solvent used as a precipitant was acetonitrile. The DSC results showed that the precipitates are PSAN, and AN is stable over the temperature range from $0^{\cire}C$ to $80^{\cire}C$ if the KDN concentration in the precipitated solids is greater than about 6 wt.%. The particles prepared are expected to be useful as an oxidizer for the solid rocket propellants and explosives.

In order to investigate the significance of "salting-out" and "pore swelling" effects on the nanofiltration of neutral solutes, rejection properties of two NF ceramic and polymeric membranes were studied with single polyethyleneglycol (PEG) solution and mixed PEG/inorganic electrolyte solutions. For both membranes, the rejection rate of PEG was found to decrease significantly in the presence of ions. In the case of the ceramic membrane (rigid pores), this phenomenon was imputed to the sole partial dehydration of PEG molecules induced by the surrounding ions. This assumption was confirmed by the lowering of the PEG rejection rates which followed the Hofmeister series. Experimental data were used to compute the resulting decrease in the Stokes radius of PEG molecules in the presence of the various salts. Concerning the polymeric membrane, the decrease in the rejection rate was found to be systematically higher than for the ceramic membrane. The additional decrease was then ascribed to the swelling of the pores. The experimental data of rejection rates were then used to compute the variation in the mean pore radius in the presence of the various salts. The pore swelling phenomenon due to accumulation of counterions inside pores was supported by electrokinetic charge density measurements.

This study aims to find out the devices to minimize the amount of nitrate ingested from kimchi, the main way of vegetable intake for Koreans, and the basic data to deliver to calculate the total daily intake for Korean, investigating the year-round changes of nitrate content in vegetables for Kimche raw material, and changes of nitrate content by salting of chinese cabbage, and stewed kimchi through the use of different cooking methods. The results obtained were summarized as follow: over between 205-6655mg/kg f.w. in chinese cabbage, 480-3970mg/kg f.w. in chinese radish, 157-5820mg/kg f.w. in lettuce and 29-520mg/kg f.w. in cucumber respectively. Therefore it was strongly adviced to introduce the nitrate limit value of vegetables in Korea if the nitrate content in Kimchi should be reduced to meet the nitrate ADI(Acceptable Daily Intake, 219mg60kg b.w) of FAO.WHO, because the nitrate content in Kimchi reflects the nitrate content in vegetables. In order to keep the low nitrate content in Kimchi. it was adviced to remove the outer leaf which contains 2-3 times higher nitrate content compare to the inner leaf at the time of preparation, i.e. chinese cabbage, before the soaking treatment in salt solution for Kimchi making process. The dehydration by soaking treatment in salt solution occurred at 0.9%~4.7% in leaf midrib and more than 13%~24% in leaf blade. The nitrate content after soaking in salt solution was increased 107%~123% compared with before soaking, increasing rates of nitrate content in the outer and inner leaf midrib were higher than those in leaf blade. The increase of nitrate content in salt solution after soaking due to the dehydration of chinese cabbage by soaking treatment. The Kimchi stew(Kimchi JJige) was processed with and without animal oil, but the amount of nitrate in kimchi stew did not decrease both treatments, but it increased after the processing since the water in Kimchi stew has got low by boiling.

We have investigated the effects of polyols and NaCl on the rheological behaviours of surfactant mixtures. Sodium lauryl ether sulfate (SLES), cocamidopropyl betaine (CAPB), disodium cocoamphodiacetate (DSCA), cocamide DEA (CDEA) and lauroyl/myristoyl DEA (LMDE) were used as surfactants. The polyols added into the surfactant mixture were 1,3-butylene glycol, propylene glycol, glycerin, sorbitol, dipropylene glycol, PEG 1500 and PEG 400. The addition of amphoteric surfactant to SLES aqueous solution lead to increase the height of foam and the viscosity of the system. The addition of nonionic surfactant, LMDE or CDEA to the SLES aqueous solution increased the viscosity and the effect of LMDE was better than that of CDEA. The effect of adding polyols and NaCl into the surfactant mixture aqueous solution lead to increase or decrease the viscosity of the systems depending on the concentration of NaCl and the kinds of polyols. These results can be explained through the salting in or salting out of surfactant of the systems.

A novel agglomeration technique, termed "Spherical Crystallization Process", which can transform directly the fine crystals produced in the crystallization or the reaction process into a spherical shape was developed. By this technique, needle like crystals such as salicylic acid were transformed into free flowing and directly compressible agglomerates. Sphericaly agglomerated aminophyline crystals were obtained directly from the reaction system, which could reduce the preparation processes, e. g. synthesis, crystallization and agglomeration, into only one step. Sodium theophyline monohydrate agglomerates were prepared by salting out, the rate process of which was described by a first order kinetics. Agglomerated crystals of ndw complex of indo-methacin-mepirizole were prepare with this technique; an improved therapeutic effect of the resultant crystals was expected. expected.
